How long does it take to get a divorce in North Dakota
In North Dakota, the divorce process includes a 60-day waiting period from the date of filing.
This period serves as a minimum timeframe; actual durations can vary.
Uncontested divorces, where spouses agree on key issues like property division and child custody, typically resolve within a few months after the waiting period.
However, contested divorces, involving disputes and negotiations, can extend significantly, sometimes taking a year or more, depending on case complexity and court schedules. The timeline also varies across counties, influenced by local court procedures and caseloads.
In summary, while North Dakota law mandates a 60-day wait, the total time for divorce completion can vary based on individual case factors and court efficiency.

Military members stationed in North Dakota can file for divorce if they meet the six-month residency requirement. These residency rules ensure North Dakota courts have jurisdiction over divorce cases, providing a structured and accessible legal process.
